Not even done, but I just wanted to say that I think it’s very cool. The tracks I’ve heard so far are very airy and almost ethereal. Manu Katche is a great drummer and musician. His drum tracks are so subtle and yet so intricate. His cymbal work is really outstanding, which I know sounds weird but it’s true. He plays drums like a person would talk…very, very expressive. Definitely worthy of a listen.

***I'm done listening now, and it's still definately worthy of a listen.***

The Tribe Is One

About Me

I was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1972 which I believe puts me into the year of the Rat were I Chinese. I’m not, but even if I were I don’t know how I’d really feel about that. Let’s face it, the best thing about those place mats in Chinese restaurants is that someone has officially called my father a Cock and lived to tell about it. I, with great foresight on the part of my parents, was also born on May fifth or, as it’s commonly known to frat boys and my Mexican brothers and sisters, Cinco de Mayo. Little did I know as a child that I had the great fortune to share a birthday with the day the Mexican militia decided to whoop up on the French army in The Battle Of Puebla back in 1862 and not the Mexican Day of Independence…which certain tequila manufactures named Jose could care less if you knew about at all. The actual Mexican Day of Independence is September 16th. I kid you not, look it up if you don’t believe me.
